Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i
Currently hold a small position in DND. The Stock had a brief pop last Fridays on news of an unsolicited offer from Plantro at approximately double the previous days closing share price suggesting possible $5 SP.
What is 5i's opinion on this offer and on the possibility of it being successful?
Time frame ?

thx

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I came across an article this weekend about the "Rule of 40" and how it is evolving. It states that companies exceeding the Rule of 40 by 10 or more points (achieving a score of 50 or higher) see their revenue multiples increase by approximately 2.2X, and smart money is now favouring companies that balance growth with profitability, rather than just pursuing high growth at any cost.

I'm curious about Canadian and U.S. companies that achieve a Rule of 40 score of around 50 or better, meaning their revenue growth plus profit margin adds up to 50% or more. For example, a company growing at 20% with 30% margins, or one with 25% growth and 25% margins.

- Can you recommend any companies that fit this profile?
- Any Canadian companies that might be flying under the radar.
- Any mid/small-cap U.S. companies that meet this criteria.

Do you think this makes sense as a screening criterion for identifying quality growth stocks? If not, what is lacking?

Best,
Matt

Q: Hi Team,
Do you still consider Srad and Geni solid growth names? I own both in moderation at a loss. Wondering if they are worth holding or if you would trade them in for any other “better” ideas at the moment? 10yr hold.

Q: Dear 5i team,
I have been a WSP shareholder for over five years. During this time, the share price has sometimes fallen, but my patience has always been rewarded. I am struggling to understand the recent drop in the share price. I believe the Q3 results were solid. I note that competitors in the sector, such as Stantec and Atkins, are also experiencing declines…
Could you explain recent WSP's decline? What is your view on the future of the stock, and if you are confortable to continue holding?

Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i,

Thx.
